Tools for sharing work with others.

ALA Connect: One of the resources you will need to use is ALA Connect. This will be especially likely for ALSC committees and workgroups with a designated workspace on ALA Connect.

Document sharing

Google Docs: documents, spreadsheets, presentations, forms, drawings, and tables. Google Docs works well for small groups and is one of the most commonly used tools for collaborating on documents and spreadsheets.

Social bookmarking sites can be used to share links within a group or with the public. Committees may find social bookmarking useful to track and share resources relevant to their work.

Wikis

Wikis work well if you want to develop content that anyone can edit (or anyone within a defined group, if desired), and if you want to share that content with a large audience. Keep in mind that much of what you can do on a wiki can also be done on ALA Connect.
